A special, one-off concert by the Rolling Stones last month, performing their classic album Sticky Fingers live at the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles, is now available on Apple Music for a limited period.

The Rolling Stones kicked off their US Zip Code tour this summer with a special performance of Sticky Fingers, in its entirety at the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles. Sticky Fingers Live is now available to download on iTunes and features the band – Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts – performing to a packed, intimate 1,200 capacity audience.

Opening with ‘Sway’, before ripping through incredible performances of ‘Dead Flowers’, ‘Wild Horses’, ‘Sister Morphine’, ‘You Gotta Move’, ‘Bitch’ and ‘Brown Sugar’, the one-off concert was dubbed the hottest ticket of the year and also featured the Stones regular band of back-up musicians Lisa Fischer (Vocals), Bernard Fowler (Vocals), Darryl Jones (Bass) and Chuck Leavell (Keyboards). This concert marked the first time the band performed Sticky Fingers in its entirety.

Sticky FingersLive has been mixed by the Award-winning Producer Bob Clearmountain.

“That the album ever came out at all was a complete miracle,” marvels Bill Wyman of the 1972 landmark Rolling Stones album Exile On Main St. Though critics initially overlooked the band’s provocative blend of American roots music with Brit-style rock (“Everybody slagged it off,” Wyman bitterly recalls), the album has since gained recognition as one of the Stones’ most potent statements. This year, Universal has re-mastered the seminal double album, reissuing it with a blistering batch of bonus tracks.

Coolest of all are Darryl’s Sly Stone-pitched vocals and bouncing bass on “Stay,” his inventive, uplifting nod to Sly’s “If You Want Me to Stay.” In short, style and substance in droves. – Bass Player Magazine
